Carrots are rich in vitamin A, vitamin K, and potassium, making them a highly nutritious vegetable. Low in calories and high in dietary fiber, carrots are known for their bright orange color, although they can also come in other colors such as white, yellow, red, and purple. Consuming carrots offers several health benefits:
Improved vision: Carrots are rich in vitamin A, which is essential for eye health and can help prevent macular degeneration.
Reduced risk of cardiovascular diseases: Carrots are a good source of potassium, which can help lower blood pressure and reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases.
Improved digestion: The high dietary fiber content in carrots promotes healthy digestion and helps prevent constipation.
Protection against cancer: Carrots contain antioxidant compounds like beta-carotene, which may help protect against cancer and other chronic diseases.
Coconut is a versatile tropical fruit native to Southeast Asia but now grown in many warm, tropical regions worldwide. Rich in nutrients, coconut contains lauric acid, which is beneficial for heart health and immunity. It also provides fiber, vitamins, and essential minerals such as iron, magnesium, and potassium. Additionally, coconut is rich in healthy fats, which can benefit brain and skin health.
Coconut can be used in various forms, including fresh or dried coconut meat, coconut flour, coconut water, and coconut oil. Coconut water is a natural, low-calorie drink rich in electrolytes, making it ideal for athletes and those seeking a healthy way to stay hydrated. Coconut oil is widely used in cooking and personal care products due to its moisturizing and softening properties for skin and hair.
GINGER Kombucha is a natural, unpasteurized beverage made with water, cane sugar, green tea, ginger juice, and apple juice, fermented with a colony of bacteria and yeast known as SCOBY. Unlike pasteurized kombucha, traditionally fermented ginger kombucha contains live bacteria and beneficial yeasts, along with enzymes and organic acids that support digestion, immune function, and reduce oxidative stress.
Our GINGER Kombucha has a cider-like flavor with a smooth mouthfeel and balanced taste. It pairs well with fish, both blue and white, as well as seafood, making it an ideal accompaniment to sushi or grilled red meats.
